Frankie is enjoying her life as a 20-something in the late 1990s. One day, her mother, who is on vacation in Brazil, sends her a rather unique souvenir. After receiving the gift, Frankie starts to act strangely and to experience bizarre phenomena. The most striking is the presence of the stigmata, which are, according to the Catholic teachings, the wounds that Jesus Christ received at the time of his crucifixion. A priest named Andrew Kiernan becomes involved when he is sent to investigate her case by his superiors in the Vatican. Will they be able to figure out why Frankie, a self confessed atheist, is receiving the wounds that are only given to the most devout believers?
